marija.jovanic Posted November 11, 2010 Posted November 11, 2010 Ari Folman’s The Congress Picks up German FundingCOLOGNE, Germany - The Congress, Ari Folman’s follow up to his Oscar-nominated animated documentary Waltz With Bashir, has picked up €700,000 ($963,000) in production funding from Filmstiftung NRW in Germany.The feature, starring Robin Wright, is a loose adaptation of the novella The Congress from sci-fi writer Stanislaw Lem (Solaris) and will be half live action and half 2D animation.In the first, live-action half, Wright plays an actress who signs over her identity to a movie studio, who agree to use an ageless Avatar of her likeness in films, keeping her 32 forever on screen. The second, animated section takes place 20 years later, when Wright’s characters’ contract is up for renegotiation. The studio has since been bought by a pharmaceutical company. They want to turn the actress’ identity into a drug for public consumption.France’s Les Armateurs and Le Pacte are producing The Congress together with Cologne-based Pandora Film. Folman will do part of the production for the animated segment of the film in Cologne. The Congress is budgeted at around $10 million and is set for a 2013 release. http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/ari-...ess-picks-43832 Quote
marija.jovanic Posted November 11, 2010 Posted November 11, 2010 The Congress 2013 After the success of his animated documentary “Waltz with Bashir”, Folman seems again to create a new dimension for animated films with his new project "The Congress": the first 40 minutes of the movie start in fiction then turn into animation. Adapted from “The futurological Congress” by Stanislaw Lem, the film follows the life of actress Robin Wright, then enters into a science fiction world of illusion, drugs and psychological doubts. http://www.facebook.com/pages/Robin-Wright/177117459296 Quote
